Syrian army has intercepted missiles Israeli regime’s fighter jets fired towards a military position near the capital, Damascus.

In a statement carried by state media on Wednesday, the army said the Israeli aircraft used Lebanese airspace for the missile strikes.

Loud blasts were heard in Damascus at around 3:30 a.m. local time.

“Our air defense systems blocked them and destroyed most of them,” said the statement.

The latest attack on Syria came shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu paid a rare visit to the occupied part of Syria’s Golan Heights and peered across the border.

In a letter sent to the UN Secretary General and Security Council President, the Ministry said that on 3:42 am on Wednesday in 7/2/2018, the Israeli occupation attacked once again the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic, as Israeli aircrafts fired missiles from the Lebanese airspace on an area in Damascus Countryside province.

The Ministry went on to say that the attack coincided with the attacks of armed terrorist organizations and the launching of more than 1,000 rockets and mortar rounds during the past few days on neighborhoods, suburbs, diplomatic missions, service facilities, and churches in Damascus and other cities, where dozens of civilians were killed and hundreds others were wounded, most of them women and children… … … … … … … … …

The competent authorities on Friday seized new amounts of weapons, various ammunition, toxic materials and Israeli-made mines left by Daesh (ISIS) terrorist organization in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor.

The authorities discovered Israeli-made mines, poisonous materials and weapons from the remnants of Daesh during the sweeping operations of the villages of al-Sayyal, Hassrat and the town of al-Jalaa in the eastern countryside of the province, according to SANA’s reporter.

The competent authorities continue their work in combing the villages and towns of the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor and cleansing the area of the remnants of Daesh in preparation for the return of the families to their homes… … …

… … …Dissident-affiliated websites reported on Tuesday that Israeli military is planning to cross into Syria amid intensified tensions between Daesh (ISIS, ISIL) and other rival terrorist groups in the Southern part of the country… … …

… … …The Zionist entity intention is to transform most of Israel’s neighboring Arab states into warring tribes and ethnicities so they would no longer be a threat to the colonial entity. Tel Aviv leaders have stated openly that they would prefer continued chaos in Syria… … …

Syrian Arab Army and Syrian Armed Forces units discovered large amounts of weapons and equipment left behind by Daesh (ISIS) terrorists, some of which are Israeli and US-made, during the ongoing combing operations in the province of Deir Ezzor.

Syrian Army units seized large amounts of weapons, various types of ammo, explosive devices, landmines, communication devices, armored vehicles, car bombs, and tanks in the area between al-Mayadden and al-Boukamal cities, a military source said.

The Syrian army units discovered weapons, some of which are Israeli and US-made, in addition to hundreds of assorted shells, ammunition, and weapons made by the NATO and other European and Western countries.

The weapons included armored equipment, artillery, large amounts of anti-armor shells, and a NATO-made 155 mm cannon with a range of up to 40 km, in addition to tanks, armored vehicles, car bombs, modern communications equipment, night vision binoculars, and surveillance equipment… … …

on November 24th CNN ran an article whereby according to unnamed officials poor US pilots were being “subjected to unsafe Russian flying practices”. This followed a report a week earlier where an unidentified Pentagon officer spoke about “threatening” and “potentially threatening” Russian aircraft and their “increasingly alarming behavior” (which later in the article simply turned out to be Russians flying in weapons range of US assets on the ground).

Now the Pentagon has graduated to openly raising the prospect of shooting down a Russian warplane directly through its spokespeople. Colonel Damien Pickart, the spokesman for US Air Forces Central Command, said yesterday the US military has “the greatest concern” it could “shoot down a Russian warplane because its actions are seen as a threat” — in other words if they cross into “coalition airspace” in eastern Syria. Yes, bizarrely the Pentagon refers to Syria to the east of the Euphrates as “our airspace”:

“We saw anywhere from six to eight incidents daily in late November, where Russian or Syrian aircraft crossed into our airspace on the east side of the Euphrates River,” Pickart said… … …

On Decembers 9, Major General Igor Konashenkov spokesman for the Ministry of Defense of Russia revealed that a F-22 warplane of the US Air Force tried to prevent two Russian Su-25 warplanes from bombing a base of ISIS on the western bank of the Euphrates River on November 23.

Later, the US F-22 withdrew when a Russian Su-35 warplane arrived to escort the two Su-25, according to Maj. Gen. Konashenkov.

Lieutenant Colonel Damien Pickart, a spokesman for the US Air Force Central Command, told CNN during an interview on Decembers 9: “We saw anywhere from six to eight incidents daily in late November, where Russian or Syrian aircraft crossed into our airspace on the east side of the Euphrates River”

The spokesman of the Russian military described Lt. Col. Pickart statement as “puzzling” and stressed that Syria is a sovereign nation and a member of the UN.

“Unlike the Russian Air Force, the US-led coalition is operating in Syria without any legal basis”, Maj. Gen. Konashenkov said… … …

As ISIS’ self-proclaimed Caliphate collapsed in Syria, the Israeli military intensified their strikes on forces and facilities belonging to the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and its allies. The goal of the effort is to weaken pro-government forces ahead of a possible new round of escalation in the region.

On December 4, warplanes allegedly from Israel conducted airstrikes on the Dumair Airbase. According to reports, the airstrikes hit the radar installation and destroyed it.

On December 5, Israeli warplanes launched missiles on the scientific research center in the area of Jumraya in northern Damascus. According to the Syrian state-run media, Syrian air defense systems intercepted three of the missiles. The rest of the missiles – 3 or 4 – hit the target.

The Tiger Forces and their allies have liberated 5 villages and 3 hills from ISIS in the province of Deir Ezzor.

Government troops have captured the villages of Khutaytah, Abbas, Mazra’at Shamr, Qit’ah, Mujawwadah, the Nusuriyah Mountain and the hills of Bani and Khinzir. The Tiger Forces also outflanked and stormed the ISIS-held village of Jalaa – one of the last ISIS strong points in the area.

The SAA and the Tiger Forces are now in only about 12km from reaching their counterparts in the area of al-Bukamal. The rapid advance of pro-government forces show that the ISIS defenses have de-facto collapsed in the Euphrates Valley.

Israel has targeted [again] a military facility in Syria with a fresh round of missile attacks, according to Syrian TV broadcasters. Just days before, Israeli Air Force missiles destroyed a building in the Syrian city of al-Qiswa where an Iranian military facility was reportedly under construction, the Times of Israel said.

Israeli Defense Forces fired seven or more missiles, according to published reports, but at least a few of them were intercepted.

A report from Syria states the missiles targeted Jamriya, a city approximately 3 miles northwest of the Syrian capital. Witnesses told Reuters they heard three loud explosions and that smoke was seen near the Jamriya area.

According to Sky News Arabic, the missiles were launched from Lebanese airspace. The IDF generally doesn’t disclose many details about its military operations, a spokeswoman said… … …

The Syrian Arab Army’s Air Defense at midnight confronted an Israeli attack with ground-to-ground missiles (GGM) on one of the military sites in Damascus countryside.

The Israeli enemy launched at 12, 30 am (local time) a number of GGM against one of the military sites in Damascus countryside, adding that the Syrian air defense intercepted them and destroyed 2 of them.

The Israeli aggression caused material damage to the site, according to the sources.

The Zionist entity is closely linked to the terrorist organizations in Syria. The army has repeatedly found Israeli weapons inside the terrorists’ hideouts, particularly in Jub al-Jarrah, al-Mayadeen and Khan al-Sheeh areas… … …

Ambassador of the Russian Federation to Lebanon Alexander Zasypkin said that currently the situation in Lebanon is under control, and that Moscow does not expect military escalation there.

Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri resigned on November 4 in a declaration read from Saudi Arabia, pushing Lebanon back to the forefront of a regional struggle between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

Zasypkin added that in the case of a new military action against Lebanon-based Hezbollah organization, Israel will “suffer substantial casualties”.

Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia accused Iran of conducting acts of “direct military aggression” and accused Lebanon of “declaring war” on Riyadh by allowing Hezbollah “aggression” against the kingdom.

A warlike rhetoric against Iran, Lebanon and Hezbollah are a clear sign of this. While Iran is a potent regional power in military and diplomatic terms, Hezbollah is a non-state actor. So, Riyadh may choose the group as an enemy for its risky foreign policy undertaking.

Saudi Arabia and Israel are obvious allies in their will to destroy Hezbollah. On November 5, Tel Aviv started the largest-ever aerial exercise in the history of Israel.

A leaked diplomatic cable confirmed that the Saudis and Israelis are coordinating their efforts against Iran and Hezbollah thus escalating the already tense situation in the Middle East.

The region may be heading for another large-scale military conflict… … …

The U.S. has established a new military base in the regions that are under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), continuing to occupy Syrian territory, an SDF official said on Saturday.

A senior SDF official, who requested to remain anonymous, said that the U.S. had set up a military base in Raqqa city in Northeastern Syria, which was recently liberated from the ISIL (Daesh, ISIS, IS).

“The United States is building military bases in areas freed by our forces from ISIL. We consider it to be the right strategy.

Recently, the US forces established a military base at the entrance to the territory of Raqqa, in the Jezra neighborhood,” the official added… … …

Some of the military aid sent to the Syrian opposition by Qatar, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the US may have ended up in the hands of Al-Qaeda-affiliated Al-Nusra terrorists, the Qatari foreign minister has admitted.

The revelations, which are the first of their kind to emerge, were contained in a statement by Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, who served as Qatari foreign minister between 1992 and 2013.

When the conflict started in Syria back in 2011, Hamad bin Jassim said that he went straight to the late Saudi King Abdullah, who then supported Doha’s plan on Syria.

While Qatar is now being accused by the Gulf kingdoms of backing terrorism, Hamad bin Jassim insists that when the Syrian crisis broke out, Doha, Riyadh and Washington were “in one and the same trench” in their vision on supporting anti-Assad militants.

He made the comments during a television interview with Qatar TV in October.

According to the former minister, all aid destined for the Syrian rebels passed via Turkey and was coordinated with the US forces.

“All aid distributed on Syrian territory was also coordinated by the US forces,” said Hamad bin Jassim who also served as Qatari prime minister between 2007 and 2013.

He did not specify who exactly was to receive the aid, but the US – together with Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey – have repeatedly voiced their support for Syrian opposition and issued both humanitarian and military aid to anti-government militants… … …

We’ve already said that Americans are leading a double game in Syria. Russia’s Ministry of Defense provides another evidence. It’s about the battle of Raqqa. Americans have recently bombed Raqqa like Dresden was bombed at the end of World War II. And the ISIS militants with weapons were carefully transported to Deir-ez-Zor in the vehicles specially rented for them. There the Syrian army is fighting with the fanatics. The map shows dozens of trucks and buses moving to the southeast, completely unhindered, as if they didn’t exist for the US Air Force. When they arrived at Deir-ez-Zor last week, they immediately attacked the government forces from the North. The thugs there were destroyed. But they still caused troubles to our units. Thank the Americans. As for Raqqa, Damascus says the city will be liberated only when it’s controlled by the government forces. It hasn’t happened so far. Our war correspondent Anton Stepanenko has reached the Idlib de-escalation zone. He’s the only Russian journalist to get there.

Syrian Arab Army units discovered large amounts of weapons, ammunition and explosive devices, some of which are Israeli- made.

A field commander said the weapons included several kinds of heavy, medium and light weapons, some of which are of Israeli–made, mortars, ammunition, and also NATO-made weapons purchased from Central and Eastern European states and other European and western countries.

The commander added that the weapons also included mortars, AK-47 rifles, heavy machine guns, RPGs and various types of ammunition, armored and artillery equipment, large quantities of anti-armor, 155 mm cannons with a range of up to 40 km, of NATO- made.

The munitions are the transported by both sea and air from Europe to Turkey, Jordan and Kuwait. They are then distributed to US allies in northern and southern Syria by planes and trucks… … …

Syrian government forces have liberated the villages of Aksh, Jaberiyah, Wadhihi and Nashimi and divided the ISIS-held pocket in eastern Salamiyah into two separate parts. Now, the army and its allies are able to defeat the remaining ISIS units one by one.

The ISIS-linked news agency Amaq released a video showing “two Russians” that ISIS had allegedly captured in late September during clashes near the village of al-Shulah located on the Palmyra-Deir Ezzor highway.

After over 6 years of war in Syria, Israel has found that something is not going along with their vision of the situation.

On Tuesday, Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman gave an interview to Israel’s Walla news site calling on the United States to contribute more effort to the war torn country where President Bashar Assad “is winning”.

“I see a long international queue lining up to woo Assad, including Western nations, including moderate Sunnis. Suddenly everyone wants to get close to Assad. This is unprecedented. Because Assad is winning, everyone is standing in line”, the minister said adding that Israel is now “faced with the Russians, Iranians, and also the Turks and Hezbollah. The public does not know everything and it’s a good thing, but it’s an investment and an effort 24 hours a day, seven days a week”.

Israel’s justice minister has warned the Syrian government that Israel “will do what is necessary” if President Bashar al-Assad does not keep Russia out of Syria. Ayelet Shaked said that If Putin wants to survive, he needs to keep his millitary forces out of Syria’.

“Israel needs to pressure world powers to not allow Russia to establish a strong presence in Syria”, Shaked told Herzliya’s International Institute on Counterterrorism Conference.

If the world powers did not comply with this demand, she said, then “Israel will do what we need to do”. The threats towards Syria come a time when pro-government forces have all but extinguished the presence of ISIS in Syria and are getting close to completely ending the six year long war.. … …

Libyan authorities arrested a leader and mosque preacher of the ISIS terrorist group who later confessed to be a Mossad officer.

According to the Libyan authorities, preacher Abu Hafs’ real name is Benjamin Efraim, an Israeli national operating in one of Mossad’s special units which conduct espionage operations in Arab and Islamic countries.

The Libyan authorities said the Mossad spy has started his career in Libya by leading a 200-member ISIS-affiliated group and moved to Benghazi in disguise as a preacher.

According to them, Abu Hafs had attempted to infiltrate Egypt, adding that the group, under his command, is among the most barbaric terrorist groups which had threatened to export war to Egypt.

The report came in the backdrop of a number of reports that said ISIS Leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was also a Mossad agent although no credible evidence has yet been presented to substantiate the claim.

When the terror outfit attacked Iraq and conquered Mosul some three years ago, numerous reports have surfaced the media disclosing that tens of Mossad agents are leading ISIS fighters… … …

The Syrian Army Tiger Forces and Tribal forces have liberated Bir al-Zamlah, Bir Rumaylan, Eastern Zamlah, the Zamlah pumping station and the gas fields of Zalmah and Khala, and Fahed and Dubaysan oil fields from ISIS terrorists in the southern part of Raqqah province.

Meanwhile, 12 Syrian soldiers have been allegedly killed in Hamima village in the eastern Homs countryside as a result of an ISIS attack started with VBIED. ISIS also claimed that it destroyed two SAA tanks with ATGMs and captured a T-62 tank, a bulldozer, 23mm and 12.7mm guns and two Konkurs missiles. A fighting is ongoing in the area.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday said that he opposes the ceasefire deal in southern Syria brokered by the United States and Russia. The reason is that the agreement does not serve so-called Israeli interests. According to Netanyahu, the agreement perpetuates Iranian plans to set up a long-term presence on Israel’s northern border.

Former head of Mossad [Israel’s intelligence agency], Efraim Halevy, defends the country’s treatment of al-Nusra Front fighters on the Syrian border. Efraim Halevy said that he is not concerned that Israel had treated fighters in Syria from al-Nusra Front who some say is al-Qaeda’s Syrian branch.“It’s always useful […] to deal with your enemies in a humane way”, Halevy says. When pressed on whether he believed the assistance was purely humanitarian Halevy responds, “I didn’t say there’s no tactical [consideration]. I said the main consideration, the immediate consideration is humane”. Halevy also says he would not support the treatment of wounded Hezbollah fighters because Israel had been targeted by Hezbollah, but“not specifically targeted by al-Qaeda”…

Benjamin Netanyahu: “We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attack on the Twin Towers and Pentagon and the American struggle in Iraq. Perpetual wars and chaos in the Middle East swung American public opinion in our favour”.

18 Israeli fighter jets along with two Gulfstream aircraft landed in Saudi Arabia on Thursday to prevent any hostile or military moves by former Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef bin Abdulaziz who was replaced with Saudi King Salman’s son.

Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz announced on Wednesday his decision to replace Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef bin Abdulaziz with his own son, Mohammed bin Salman.

U.S. President Donald Trump has called Saudi Arabia’s new crown prince to congratulate him.

After the decision was announced, the Israeli air force sent 18 of its fighter jets, including F16I, F15CD and F16CD, along with two Gulfstream aircraft, two tanker airplanes and two C130 planes, special for electronic warfare, to Saudi Arabia at the demand of the new crown prince bin Salman to block his cousin (bin Nayef)’s possible measures………………….

Israel is betting on a US-Iranian conflagration and it remains to be seen how far the Trump administration can withstand the pressure from the Jewish lobby.

Meanwhile, latest reports suggest that Iraqi government forces and Sunni fighters have taken control of the border crossing near Al-Tanf inside Iraq (known as al-Waleed border crossing).

A Reuters report has interpreted this development as in effect “preventing Iranian-backed forces supporting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from receiving heavy weaponry from Iran by using the main highway between Iraq and Syria.”

Quite obviously, a US-Iranian contestation is building up in southern Syria.

In sum, Israel might be getting what it seeks, but it is another matter altogether whether it is going to like the final outcome of the struggle between the US and Iran over control of southern Syria near Golan Heights.

It is improbable that Iran will give up the ‘axis of resistance’ because it is ultimately about Iran’s own defence…………………

Commander of Iran’s Basij (Volunteer) force Brigadier General Gholam-Hossein Gheib-Parvar underlined that Israel is orchestrating the terrorist events in Syria with the help of certain regional rulers and Takfiri militants.

“The sedition in Syria is one of the Zionist regime’s plots, and the puppet rulers in the region want to hit a blow at Islam in cooperation with Israel,” General Gheib-Parvar said, addressing a ceremony in the Northern city of Sari on Tuesday. “The Takfiri groups (also) seek to uproot Islam under the name of Islam but they cannot attain their ominous goals,” he added…………………

(1)~ The Syrian Army’s missile and artillery units targeted the gatherings and positions of Al-Nusra Front (recently renamed to Fatah al-Sham Front) in Northern Quneitra on Saturday, killing several terrorists including Al-Nusra’s major agent responsible for contacts with Israeli forces.

(2)~ Based on Syrian Military Intelligence data a Syrian Artillery Regiment conducted strikes against a group of terrorists first line commanders and during their presence in al-Tulol al-Homr (Arabic for the Red Hills) specifically in the area located between Bet Jin town in the Southwestern Suburbs of Damascus and al-Hadar town in Northern al-Qunaitira.

Three terrorists high level commanders were hit including the number one hand of Zionists in the South known as Mohammad Iyad Kamal (code name “Moro”)……………………………………

(3)~ Israel has sent its troops on repeated spying missions to a village located half a kilometer inside Syria’s territory in an incident caught on camera, a Tel Aviv-based TV says.

Carl Gershman, Committee Member for the Research Department of B’nai B’rith [1-2-3] (1968), and of the Governing Council of the American Jewish Committee (1972), is also the neoconservative president of the U.S.-taxpayer-funded National Endowment for Democracy [NED]. He called for the U.S. government to engineer the overthrow of Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying that the 10-year-old murder case of the Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya should be the inspiration.

Carl Gershman, who has headed NED since its founding in 1983, doesn’t cite any evidence that Putin was responsible for the death of Anna Politkovskaya but uses a full column in The Washington Post on Friday to create that impression, calling her death “a window to Vladimir Putin, the Kremlin autocrat whom Americans are looking at for the first time.”

Gershman wraps up his article by writing: “Politkovskaya saw the danger [of Putin], but she and other liberals in Russia were not strong enough to stop it. The United States has the power to contain and defeat this danger. The issue is whether we can summon the will to do so. Remembering Politkovskaya can help us rise to this challenge.”

That Gershman would so directly call for the ouster of Russia’s clearly popular president represents further proof that NED is a neocon-driven vehicle that seeks to create the political circumstances for “regime change” even when that means removing leaders who are elected by a country’s citizenry.

And there is a reason for NED to see its job in that way. In 1983, NED essentially took over the CIA’s role of influencing electoral outcomes and destabilizing governments that got in the way of U.S. interests, except that NED carried out those functions in a quasi-overt fashion while the CIA did them covertly.

These are the real reasons why Kerry, in these hours at the UNSC, is calling for a “No Fly Zone” over Aleppo and surroundings.

ALEPPO PROVINCE, Western Mountains: “The Russian warships stationed in Syria’s coastal waters targeted and destroyed a foreign military operations room, killing over two dozen Israeli and western intelligence officers.

The operations room was located in the Western part of Aleppo province in the middle of sky-high Sam’an mountain and old caves. The region is deep into a chain of mountains.

Several US, Turkish, Saudi, Qatari and British officers were also killed along with the Israeli officers. The foreign officers who were killed in the Aleppo operations room were directing the terrorists’ attacks in Aleppo and Idlib”….

A Yemeni missile strike hit a Saudi-led coalition military base in Asir province where Israel’s military experts are stationed.

The Khamis Mushait air base in Asir province came under Yemen’s Qaher-I ballistic missile on Tuesday.

There were no immediate report on the exact number of casualties, but eyewitnesses confirmed that the Yemeni missile precisely hit Khamis Mushait airbase.
The Yemeni missile attack came in retaliation for the Saudi airstrikes on Yemen’s civilians.

This is not the first time that Saudi Arabia is using services of the Israeli top security company.

Since 2010, the Israeli Al Majal Group has taken charge of security during the mandatory Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, or Hajj. It was under the watch of the Israeli security company that over 4,000 Muslim pilgrims were killed during last year’s Hajj following a deadly stampede in Mina, the worst in history.

Al Majal G4S is a private Israeli security contractor that has also been implicated in enabling the torture of administrative detainees in Palestine, including children.

Balgeria’s A.B. V party deputy has revealed Mossad Director’s visit with Turkish top official and the following dramatic increase of Mossad experts in Turkey’s airports.

According to Alalalm News Network, Rumen Petkov Balgeria’s A.B.V Party deputy has based on the remarks of an informed source in Turkish intelligence agency MIT written on his twitter that the number of Mossad experts has dramatically increased in Turkish airports.

He has also written that this dramatic increase of Mossad experts in Turkish airports has occurred after that Mossad chief Yossi Kohen and Turkish deputy foreign minister Feridun Sinirlioğlu met in absolute news silence in Sweden.

“On that day I was in the city of Qom when we received the news of Saddam entering Kuwait. At the time, nothing but the detainees of the Kuwait Prison, among which was Sayyed Mustafa Badreddine, came to my mind.

I was asking myself about their destiny after the entering of Saddam”, says the Coordinator of Al-AMAN Network for Strategic Studies, Anees Naqqash to Al-Manar Website.

The name of “Mustafa Badreddine”, just like other great resistance leaders, is not mentioned in Beirut’s southern suburb unless it is to comment on what is reported by journals and websites such as claims and scenarios that aim at defaming the man known by the people of resistance in Lebanon as one of its distinguished leaders and a man of uncountable achievements.

There are many guys who receive their orders from “Mustafa Badreddine” without knowing him. Some would meet him without knowing who he is. “Mustafa Badreddine,” like other leaders, doesn’t like popularity or being mentioned here and there.

[by Jonathan Azaziah, MouqawamahMusic]
During the early stages of the hegemonic powers’ criminal invasion of Iraq when the Abu Ghraib scandal arose, Hersh wrote a couple of critically-acclaimed pieces in the New Yorker–a Zionist rag if there ever was one–supposedly “documenting” how all the torture was the fault of two men, the war criminals Donald Rumsfeld and Stephen Cambone.

What Hersh deliberately failed to mention however, firstly, was that Rumsfeld himself was nothing but the mere front man for Cerberus Global Investments, an immensely powerful holdings firm run by the Jewish supremacist billionaires Michael Steinhardt and Stephen Feinberg, and Cambone was just the literal underling of ultra-Zionist Douglas Feith.

And secondly, Hersh COMPLETELY left off the fact that the barbaric, utterly satanic torture tactics used on Iraqis in that hellhole were in fact ‘Israeli’, taught to the American occupation military by IOF, Shin Bet, Mossad and Aman “experts” (read: torturers of Lebanese and Palestinians) brought in by the Jewish neocons Paul Wolfowitz, the aforementioned Feith, Richard “Prince of Darkness” Perle, William Schneider, Abram Shulsky (who ran the OSP) and others.

Hersh was absolutely destroyed for this abominable cover-up by the ever-brilliant, always-militant Professor James Petras in the fourth chapter (entitled Exposing the Exposé: Seymour Hersh and the Missing Zionist ‘Israeli’ Connection) of his must-read book “The Power of ‘Israel’ in the United States”.

“Hashd al-Shaabi is the only group that is resisting against the Zionist regime’s plots in Iraq,” an Iraqi intelligence source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told FNA on Sunday.
He reiterated that Mossad has recently taken measures against the international supporters of Hashd al-Shaabi because such support is against Israel’s interests as the Israeli officials have been criticizing Iraq’s volunteer forces.

The commanders of the Iraqi volunteer forces have always warned of Mossad’s plots against their country.

In relevant remarks in December 2014, a senior aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin accused Mossad of training ISIL terrorists operating in Iraq and Syria.

On 6 February 2016 , the Iraqi security sources disclosed that Washington is exerting pressure on the Baghdad government to end volunteer forces (Hashd al-Shaabi) partnership in war against ISIL and dissolve the militia army that has the lion share in the war on terrorism in the country.

The US government has conveyed the message to the Iraqi government through its diplomats that there is no need to Hashd al-Shaabi forces and their role should come to an end…

The scourge known as Daesh, aka the «Islamic» State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), also known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham (ISIS) and the Islamic State (IS), has long been in the making: in the think tanks and military planning offices of Israel.

The plan to have a group like ISIL rend apart the Arab nation-states of the Middle East is enshrined in two Israeli policies:

1 – «A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties» written in 1982 by former Israeli Foreign Ministry official Oded Yinon
and
2 – «A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm», largely written American neo-conservative war hawk Richard Perle for Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and issued in 1996.

The latter report included contributions from Perle’s fellow Israeli agents-of-influence who have migrated in and out of sensitive United States government positions: Douglas Feith and David and Meyrav Wurmser.

This article (by Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya) first published by GR in November 2006 is of particular relevance to an understanding of the ongoing process of destabilization and political fragmentation of Iraq, Syria and Yemen.

John Kerry’s “Plan B” consists in breaking up Syria and Iraq.

“Hegemony is as old as Mankind…”
(Zbigniew Brzezinski, former U.S. National Security Advisor).

The term “New Middle East” was introduced to the world in June 2006 in Tel Aviv by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (who was credited by the Western media for coining the term) in replacement of the older and more imposing term, the “Greater Middle East.”

This shift in foreign policy phraseology coincided with the inauguration of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) Oil Terminal in the Eastern Mediterranean.

The term and conceptualization of the “New Middle East,” was subsequently heralded by the U.S. Secretary of State and the Israeli Prime Minister at the height of the Anglo-American sponsored Israeli siege of Lebanon.

Prime Minister Olmert and Secretary Rice had informed the international media that a project for a “New Middle East” was being launched from Lebanon.

– The Anglo-American Military Roadmap in the Middle East and Central Asia

– The Map of the “New Middle East”

– “Necessary Pain”

– The Turkish Protest at NATO’s Military College in Rome

– Is there a Connection between Zbigniew Brzezinski’s “Eurasian Balkans” and the “New Middle East” Project?

(ENG) ~ “Israel” seems to be living an ongoing nightmare, as it could not ignore the stances made by Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah who gave his latest speech on Tuesday. “Israeli” Channel 2’s Oded bin Ami, according to the article, assured that “Israel’s” major problem is that Sayyed Nasrallah has proved over time that he is honest and does not lie, and he always discusses issues that are based on reality and facts.”

~~~’The Old Sniper’~~~”Once the true story of the Captivity and the Arabian origin of the Israelite tribe are exposed, the whole Zionist project could crumble under the power of the historical truth.
A body of high profile anthropologists and historians trace the Israelite tribe back to their Arabian origin in Northen Yemen. One of their amazing evidence-based findings is that Jerusalem is originally called Dar Salam/ safe house that is located near mountain Zion in Northern Yemen.
Among those tribes were the Israelites (thieves and thugs from the very beginning)”.

~~~Dr. Ashraf Ezzat~~~ “The Zionist paradigm is founded on the distorted story of the Israelites’ Exodus from Egypt and their persecution by the Assyrians and Captivity by Babylonians. But the truth is that the Israelites never set foot in Egypt or Palestine. Actually they never left Ancient Arabia and North Yemen, their origin land, before the Babylonian Captivity”

The so called Islamic state in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) has started losing ground.
Judging by the latest Advances of Syrian and Iraqi forces, it seems that the days of ISIL are numbered (even if they held on to their captured territories for another year or two)

Actually nobody doubted that ISIL wouldn’t last for long.
Of course it will take many decades before the people (especially in the Middle East) forget about the havoc ISIL wreaked. While cold-blooded killing and beheading is going to be the core of their legacy, looting and destruction of the ancient Iraqi artifacts and museums is definitely will be one of their key achievements.

Everything will slowly get back to normal long after ISIL has been completely crushed. The land will be liberated, the people will return to their homes and native land. One thing will remain irrevocably destroyed and lost; Iraqi and Syrian ancient heritage and history.

(Submitted by ‘The Old Sniper’ & SyrianPatriots) ~ Hezbollah leader Samir Kuntar, of the Palestine Liberation Front, has reportedly been killed in a “terror attack” in Damascus, Syrian state TV said, citing official sources. Hezbollah earlier backed reports that he had been killed in an alleged Israeli airstrike.

Images from the scene show a collapsed multi-storey residential building, with lots of rubble on the ground. Vehicles parked nearby appear to have been completely destroyed.

There are conflicting reports regarding the course of events. Some say that there was an Israeli airstrike on the residential area, while other describe the incident as terrorist mortar shelling.

Syrian state TV said that several people had been injured, after rockets launched by “terrorist groups” hit a building in the Jaramana district of Damascus.
